@Brad, you have to turn your body the same way you do in swamp. It's aiming practice... you aren't aiming at anything in particular.
Liking the game so far, though...
slight spoilers ahead! Repeat! Slight spoilers!
The main character goes blind at the beginning of the game, which is why the walking and movement seem so clunky and why your partner is constantly directing you. I like the feel of it, but at the same time it frustrates me a little since I feel like even someone who just went blind would move a little more smoothly than that. But I like it more than I don't, if that makes sense. Great atmosphere, and really does convey how it might feel to be suddenly blinded and having to rely on someone else and slow, careful movement. Kinda reminds me of silent hill, one of the most famous games in this genre. Your main character is not a military man, but an ordinary civilian... so they can't handle weapons as well as the characters of other such games like, say, Resident Evil where every character has some sort of military or police training so would be able to run fast and handle weapons well. This sort of gives the same vibe... a police officer, sure, but one who was blinded by an unknown something and now is totally disoriented and has to learn how to navigate, shoot, etc simply relying on sound. There's a reason for the awkward, clunky feeling...
